CSIT 202 — Introduction to Computer Networks
Computer Science · University of Ghana
This course is 50 percent lab work of configuration of routers and network design, implementation, and testing. Topics Include: Focus on the primary aspects of data communications networking, including a study of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) and Internet models. Students will start at Layer 1 with the study of various Layer 1 interface and cabling configurations. They will construct and test various cables with connectors. Moving up the OSI layers, students will focus on IP network addressing, network design, and enhanced hands-on router and port configurations. They will also learn security protocols and do static routing, EIGRP, RIPv2, and OSPF. Students will also develop Access Control Lists (ACLs) used in modern day networks as a prime method of controlling network security and implement the ACLs on laboratory networks.
